The Role
The Project Manager is responsible for leading the successful delivery of customer implementations across both student and commercial projects within the Professional Services team. This role combines structured project leadership with strong commercial awareness, ensuring projects are delivered on time, within scope and budget, while maximising customer value and business outcomes.
You’ll act as the central point of coordination across customers, consultants, and internal teams, taking ownership of governance, financial performance, risk management, and stakeholder engagement throughout the full project lifecycle.
We want to be upfront: this is a fast-paced role. At any one time you’ll be managing multiple projects, stakeholders and priorities, so you’ll thrive here if you’re dynamic, highly organised and comfortable working under pressure. You’ll also play an active part in shaping how we deliver, bringing best practice and championing continuous improvement across our PMO.
